    JK>If I understand you correctly, you want to be able to create a netmail

    JK>You can do that with ./bbbs btxt2bbs in a script or batch file...

   Yes and it like the same I have my husky hpt to do for to post new monthly   
   rule messages by, I should have thought of it by the showing when I have run   
   just bbbs in command mode what shows in the sysop manual.   
      
   I wonder if I could made bbbs by command mode by the .bat file til make a   
   binkp tcpip poll by it self, like we do with binkd.   
      
    Take care,
